SEEUIFIGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 696,610, dated April. 1, 1902.

Application filed October 23, 1901. $erial No. 79,611. (No modeLl T0 (0% whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HANS TURK, manufacturer, a subject of the Emperor of Germany, residing at Brussels, Belgium, have invented a new and useful Stove for the Ventilation of Rooms or other Places; and I do herebydeclare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same.

This invention relates to heatin g apparatus wherein air designed to serve as a medium for carrying the heat is conducted through pipes or tubes having appreciable length and which are exposed directly to the burning fuel. The kind of heating apparatus to which my invention is particularly applicable is that in which wood or charcoal and the like are used as the fuel.

The objects of the invention are, first, to so construct the apparatus that the tubes before mentioned will serve, with the grate, as a basket-like container or support for the fuel; second, to construct the apparatus with a hood, which while it leaves the lower portion of the aforementioned container open to the atmosphere serves to confine and conduct off out of the apartment the gases and other products of combustion, and, third, to provide means adapted to serve the triple function of a damper, an expedient for conducting the heated air from the tubes into the apartment to be heated, and a closure or door for the fuel-supply opening.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein Figure 1 is avertical sectional view on the line C D in Fig. 3. Fig. 2 isa horizontal sectional view on the line A B in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional View taken perpendicularly to the sectional plane of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a horizontal sectional view on the line G H in Fig. 1. Fig. 5 is a vertical sec tional View on the line F E in Fig. 3, and Fig. 6 illustrates a detail.

' p designates the frame of the apparatus; 0, the grate; a, a box whose top walls are converged downwardly, forming the ash-pit, and 'i the smoke pipe or discharge for the products of combustion.

b designates vertically-arranged tubes, and d designates vertical bars, said tubes forming the two long sides and the bars the two short sides of a basket-like compartment or container having for its bottom the grate c. The several tubes and bars are spaced so that between them the interior of said compartment is open to the atmosphere. It should be remarked, also, that the tubes communicate at their lower ends with the box a. which box has an opening j, affording communication with the atmosphere.

Above the tubes is arranged a pair of boxes f, having a triangular cross-section, the two vertical sides of said boxes forming a rectangular space or chamber a, having for its outlet at the top the smoke-pipe i and open at the bottom to the basket like receptacle formed by the tubes and bars. With these boxes the several tubes communicate at their upper ends. The vertical wall of each boxf is pierced by an opening 8, the opening in one box being at the right-hand end of the apparatus, as seen in Fig. 1, and the opening of the other beingat the left-hand end of the apparatus.

At an on each side of the smoke-pipe i is pivoted a device d, (seen in Fig. 6,) which serves as a means for conducting the air from the tubes 1) to the atmosphere, as a damper, and as a closure of access to-the basket-like receptacle from the top of the apparatus. This device is a hollow casing having an openin g g arranged when the device is in its closed position to register with the opening 5 of the corresponding box fand also having another opening h in its top wall. It should be remarked that the inner portion of the lower wall of each device d is inclined upwardly toward the smokepipe 2'. If it is desired to reduce'tlfe draft, one or both of the closures formed by the devices d may be'opened and propped or otherwise held up, so that the interior of the basket-like container is open to the atmosphere at the top. Likewise these closures may be raised for the purpose of sup plying fresh fuel.

From the boxesf is suspended a surrounding plate Z, which extends down not quite as far as the bottom of the f uel'container. With the boxes f and the other parts of the superstructure of the apparatus said plate Zserves as a hood and confines gases and other products of combustion that might pass out into the apartment instead of passing up the chimney.

Rings 0, projecting from the frame 19, serve as means to which to secure bars or other expedients for moving the apparatus. In order that the hood may be removed, the plate I is provided with slots n, accommodating said rings.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

In a heating apparatus, the combination, with a grate, of tubes forming with said grate a fuel-container and open at one end to the atmosphere, a chamber arranged above and communicating with said fuel-container, anotherchambercommunicating withsaid tubes HANS TURK.
